Rubio responded by saying, "No... what the President has authorized is a counter-drug mission in the region." He then went on to explain that Nicolás Maduro's regime is not a legitimate government, but a narco-terrorist organization. Oh, and it's providing terrorist organizations from the Middle East with a safe space here in our own backyard as well.

He added, "In addition to that, the Venezuelan regime is a source of instability in the entire region. Over 8 million Venezuelans have flooded into neighboring countries as a result of the regime's activities within their own country, including into the United States. They also happen to be the foothold of Iran. That's not spoken about enough. Iran, its IRGC, and even Hezbollah has a presence in South America, and one of their anchor presence – especially for the Iranians – is inside of Venezuela...

But don't just take his word for it. Let's hear it from the regime itself.

Hugo "El Pollo" Carvajal Barrios is an ex-military intelligence officer for the Venezuelan government and was a powerful official within Maduro's Cartel de los Soles. Today, he's in US custody, charged with narco-terrorism, among other things. As part of a plea deal for a lighter sentence, he's agreed to help the US government by telling it everything he knows about Maduro and the cartel.

...On Wednesday, the Dallas Express exclusively obtained and published a letter that El Pollo wrote to Donald Trump, and boy, is it a doozy. To sum it up, he confirms something a lot of us already knew: Venezuela's "government" purposely and consistently targets the United States.

"Today, I see the need to address the American people about the reality of what the Venezuelan regime truly is—and why President Trump's policies are not only correct, but absolutely necessary to the United States' national security ...

"...People of the United States, make no mistake about the threat posed by allowing a narco-terrorist organization to roam freely in the Caribbean and throughout Latin America, doing everything possible to harm the American people—to finance anti-Americanism across the continent, and to facilitate the operations of other terrorist organizations and enemies of the United States within Venezuela and now within your borders.

"...The regime I served is not merely hostile—it is at war with you, using drugs, gangs, espionage, and even your own democratic processes as weapons. President Trump's policies against the Maduro criminal regime are not just justified, but necessary and proportionate to the threat..."
